In the town I went to uni, the local dialect would likely pronounce OISC and RISC the same way, /wisk/, and this is a very narrow and niche source of joy to me.

Re: merveilles.town/@zens/11280683… @Luci for dyeing

I'm listening to a discussion in French with an interpreter doing voiceover in English, and I think the interpreter is Scottish, but trying hard to remember to speak English English.

In general it sounds English, but when there's a lot to catch up on saying, the accent becomes more Scottish.

@lefarfadet I have this as my Teams status. Some people actually get it.

When it's a video call it's different though, as you're planning to spend half an hour together.

@Rita Understood.

I was looking up organizations that had signed the open letter to the EC and realized you were the same person that replied to my fediversary post two months ago. Small fedi world. 😊

@badsynthesis Today I called a meeting and then failed to show up myself, uugh.

It was at an inconvient time, because it was difficult to find a time that worked for everyone, but that's also why I forgot about it, I was out for lunch at the time. 😭

Getting increasingly annoyed with Outlook's grammar+style check. It gives me squiggly lines with suggestions that erase nuance and dilute meaning, for the sake of brevity/concision.

No, "if" doesn't mean the same thing as "as long as", it lacks the connotation of of concern and almost an ultimatum. "if", in comparison, is a shoulder shrug.

It was very funny too, I saw the invite, like demo of inhouse software X version YZ, so I kind of assumed it would be 40 people watching some powerpoint and some scripted demo. I only remembered to join because I happened to still be in front of the work computer.

I joined a few minutes early, we chit-chatted a bit (and I didn't ask how he was doing, as noted above). We started looking at the product and it had kind of a pre-meeting vibe, like, let me just show you this stuff as it connects to some stuff we've talked about before. After a few minutes of this, and nobody else joining, the "real meeting" not starting, I checked the participant list and it was just this Product Owner calling from Europe, his minion developer, and me. So this *was* the Real Meeting. 😅

Much worse than not asking how he was would have been to not show up at all, and it was pure luck that I did show up, I was just checking a few things before slamming the laptop shut and this notification popped up.

Arrgh, I did it again.

I had a meeting last night, and the other guy on the call opened up with "hey, Claes, how are you doing" and I answered with something like "good, good, all good ..." ... and then we kind of started the meeting. And the most important thing is that you ask, not that you give a relevant answer, and I didn't ask, I fumbled the asking.
